To be completely transparent
Ignore the 10" knife, it just does not look
"Right" feels light
It will sell to a yahoo. But not my friends

Ok, this post is only Kind Of about knives. Here goes: I've sprayed my yard with weed killer twice & both times it rained the next day. So I've got some tall weeds, you know the type they grow tall & have yellow flowers on top, plus some others. So over a beer I got to thinking what could I buy to specifically get rid of them? I more or less ruled everything that they had for sale on Amazon.

Second beer had me define what I wanted it to do. Kill the top & damage the root so that it probably wouldn't come back. How? How about if I cut the root in half & cut off the top? I've got a knife (cheepy from Walmart) that will do that but I'm too darned old to not suffer from that amount of time bending over, I need a long handle. I've got an extra mop handle & I taped (good tape) the knife to the mop handle. Put it in front of the plant (touching the root) & step back & twist & it works like a charm. Sure I bent the knife but still it works.

A quick search & I found a much better knife that cuts both ways for $30 (no handle) & once it arrives, I'll affix it to the mop handle. Assuming the blade I ordered is good & assuming that I can fix it securely to the mop handle, I think that I've come up with a useful tool. Of course a spear would do the same thing but they are double or triple what I'm going to pay for this & this is a narrow blade, leaving a very small hole.

Some of the folders look like I call a flipper, they have the "flipper nub?" My favorite is a CRKT CEO "Flipper" https://bladeops.com/crkt-liner-lock-ceo-flipper-knife-satin-blade/

I'll also say that I'm a semi knife guy. No expensive knives but a lot of cheepy knifes. I love having a knife within reach because they are so useful.

You might want to look at a "shuffle Hoe" /"action hoe" ?

Not the best video, but you can do your own research to determine you needs.

That probably works great for a garden but what I need it for is a yard that has a lot of those tall weeds growing in it. My "tool" only makes a half inch hole at most, sometimes no real hole & hopefully kills the week. Now there is a tool that you step on & you drive it around the weed & then pull the weed & root up. I tried one of those but it took time & left a pretty good size hole. If mine "tool" kills the root it is a winner because it's fast as all get out.
